Portuguese Laurel Hedging
A premium evergreen hedge with dense foliage, elegant dark green leaves and excellent year-round screening.
Prunus lusitanica 'Angustifolia' , commonly known as Portuguese Laurel, is an attractive evergreen hedging plant with glossy dark green leaves carried on distinctive reddish stems. It develops into a dense, refined hedge and is an excellent choice where year-round privacy is required without the larger, heavier foliage of traditional Cherry Laurel.
Portuguese Laurel responds well to regular trimming and can be maintained as a neat formal hedge or allowed to develop into a taller privacy screen. Its elegant foliage makes it particularly suitable for high-quality residential gardens, entrances and more formal planting schemes.
Why Choose Portuguese Laurel?
Evergreen foliage for year-round screening
Dense growth providing excellent privacy
Smaller, more refined leaves than Cherry Laurel
Attractive reddish young stems
Responds well to regular clipping
Suitable for formal and contemporary gardens
Excellent for taller boundary hedging
Hardy and well suited to many UK gardens
Why Buy Rootballed Portuguese Laurel?
Rootballed Prunus lusitanica 'Angustifolia' is field-grown and lifted during the dormant season with a substantial ball of soil retained around its roots.
This allows larger, more established plants to be supplied economically and makes rootballed Portuguese Laurel particularly suitable for projects where greater initial height and more immediate screening are required.
Rootballed plants are seasonal and should be planted promptly following delivery.
How Many Plants Do I Need?
Plant spacing depends on the size selected and how quickly you want the hedge to form a continuous screen. Our hedging guidewill help you calculate the quantity required.
Supply & Professional Planting
We can supply rootballed Prunus lusitanica for customers wishing to undertake their own planting or provide a complete professional supply and planting service.
Kirman Design can undertake ground preparation, correct spacing and planting of larger specimens and provide establishment and aftercare guidance.
Important – Rootballed Plants Are Seasonal
Rootballed Portuguese Laurel is lifted from nursery fields during the dormant season. Availability therefore varies according to the time of year, weather conditions and nursery stock.
For larger quantities or specific sizes, early ordering is recommended.
Delivery, Access & Planting
Rootballed hedging can be large and heavy, particularly at the larger sizes. Before ordering, it is important to consider delivery access, the route to the planting position and how the plants will be handled and planted.
